153 | Triage: The Best Idea Ever?

A triage system seems like a common-sense idea, however, it had to start somewhere. Turns out it has only been around in its recognizable form for a couple of centuries. Most people think of triage as it pertains to medicine, and there is some interesting information here that we discussed, however, triage has also been applied to mental health systems, as well as academic support. Everywhere that people have implemented a triage system, that system improved. This might be one of the human race’s greatest inventions! Or at least one that we are very excited about.

139 | Berserkers | Why We Do What We Do

Going berserk! We discuss the etymology of the term “berserk” and the possible history of the eponymous people. Their “weapon” may have been running into battle practically naked screaming their heads off. Long ago, a priest speculated that consuming a specific mushroom caused their crazed bloodlust. However, there is reason to believe that it wasn’t mushrooms but instead may have been the nightshade plant, Henbane, or a lot of alcohol, or neither of those things. Also, historians want you to know that the berserkers may have bitten their shields in battle for some reason. Some interesting psychology to unpack with berserkers!
